  <p>The next_permutation() function attempts to transform the given
  range of elements [<em>start</em>,<em>end</em>) into the next
  lexicographically greater permutation of elements. If it succeeds, it
  returns true, otherwise, it returns false.</p>

  <p>If a strict weak ordering function object <em>cmp</em> is
  provided, it is used in lieu of the &lt; operator when comparing
  elements.</p>
